  1. Summers in Houston specialize in 120 degree heat indexes. Typically highs are in the 90's along with tropical humidities. it is BRUTAL.
  2. As Tilson continues to get into a baseball rhythm for the first time in nearly two seasons, it becomes more and more plausible. His last 10 games he has hit .286 with 12 hits in 42 ABs over that time. He even has a 6 game hitting streak going now, with hits in 12 of his last 14 games. His average has gone from .208 to .237 in that time. His OPS is up 51 points during that same time frame. While he isn't killing the ball, he is probably to a point where he will give you more offense than Engel or Thompson, and he is supposed to be a solid OF defender as well.
  3. Yeah this. I honestly think Yolmer is probably my favorite player as a fan, but if we got a decent trade offer for him, I'd drive him to ORD myself.
  4. If it wasn't for the odd wall carve out that would have been well gone.
  5. I really like the Alexei comp for Anderson. Their skills, tools and raw backgrounds are very similar in a lot of ways.
  6. The only answer here is President Donald Trump. Style over substance. The Clintons were the masters of it until Trump came along to dethrone them as the King of getting people to vote against their own interests.
  7. No more absurd than the idea you can exist without government.
  8. Guess who the biggest landowner in the United States is? Guess who tells if you own land in the first place, and can kick you off of it if you don't pay enough?
  9. You do. As you said previously, you can go somewhere else. You can farm and feed yourself.
  10. I thought Lester's offer was like $2 million per year more AND another year more than anyone else offered.
  11. There is a history of this. The biggest free agent deal signed this winter was signed with a team that won 71 games last year. Arod signed his mega deal with a Rangers team that won 71 games and finished in last place the previous season. Jon Lester signed with a Cubs team that won 73 games and finished in last place the previous season.
  12. It would probably behoove you to stop invalidating people for their race/sex/orientation if you actually are trying to pretend that you aren't actively looking down on people for them.
  13. Perhaps they should have had a radio host make a sign?
  14. You've lost your mind if you think the people you are debating don't have any perspective on minorities, while only you do. But this the arrogance that continues to elect people like Donald Trump, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
  15. I am mocking you for pretending that no one else can have a valid opinion on these issues as a straight white male, as you simultaneously tell us what you as a straight white male believe. No one else here has stooped to that level of hypocrisy.
  16. Call me crazy, but personally I think the NBA has become a much better product as the game has moved away from the ISO game and into the ball movement needed to create the three point shot. I love to see the ball move, and the defense scramble and adjust. It is SO much better than 8 guys standing on one side of the floor, while there is a one on one set up on the opposite side.
  17. Yeah, I don't really feel bad for the people that ranted about needing a complete meltdown removing all established talent and anything close to it, and then got exactly what they asked for, and are upset that the team is awful.
  18. Don't like it, don't use the corporation? That's apparently what you don't understand.
  19. Is this your "I have black friends" post?
  20. Funny how you see that in everyone else BUT yourself.
